Title: Worst Christmas Albums
Post by: mecch on November 30, 2011, 09:05:38 am: I guess we all have our loves and hates for the albums cut by big stars.

Usually for the major stars its hit or miss by song, there might be one or two good songs on an otherwise forgettable, or worse, CD.

I like this slide show from the Telegraph because its filled with one can only imagine hideous albums by unknowns, forgotten, and wish you never heard ofs, and you get to see the cover art.

Actually, how bad could RuPaul be? Or for that matter, Liberace, Charo, Korla Pandit... I'd love to give those at least a listen....
